This is a mouse speculum. I used it today to pass saline past a mouse's cervix. Tomorrow we'll do it with sperm and embryos.

The big news is live. Though if you've been following me here, you may have heard about it before this. Big thanks to the NIH NIDDK, Blanca Fragrance Factory, my mentors and colleagues, #TeamPlacenta, and the power of science. jesshebert.beehiiv.com/p/likeable-b...

Sometimes having weird areas of specialty means I get THE BEST emails and they make my whole week. YES, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PLACENTAS. #TeamPlacenta

The Hebert Lab got its first student today! She's an undergrad doing a year-long thesis project and I'm so excited to get to work with her. Now we are three in the lab! :) #TeamPlacenta #KidneyCrew

Met up with a new colleague for coffee. "I have to know, do placentas have nerves?" "I...don't think so. But now I have questions."
Now we're doing a full on literature search. I pulled down my Boyd and Hamilton "Human Placenta" from the famous Serbian book search earlier this year. #TeamPlacenta

I had several folks ask me at @sriwomenshealth.bsky.social about the icon that I used to introduce my research interests at the beginning of my talk. As I mentioned, it's not AI (don't use that please) but the work of @valentinebarker.com, who can make one FOR YOU! #scicomm #SRI2026 #TeamPlacenta

It's not the same as Twitter, sure. #TeamPlacenta there was a tight-knit group and here it's more a loosely associated one, but we find each other. But #NephJC rocks! There are #Medsky folks! #scicomm and #sciart are alive with feeds and lists!
So tell your friends who are still there: it's time.

Last week: "Do I really know enough about mechanisms of proteinuria to teach clinical fellows? FOR CLINIC?!?"
Today: "Projector's down? No worries, folks, strap in, we're going to chalk talk this."
Yeah, I might actually know a thing or two about proteinuria. :D #KidneyCrew #TeamPlacenta

We have switched modes to the Lego Holiday Celebrity Bricktacular, and the words "Lego placenta" were just uttered.
1. I am now cheering for that team, which includes a human named Tacos.
2. I need a Lego placenta model. How do I get this.

Did a Grand Rounds talk for CU Anschutz today and I forgot what it felt like to feel GIDDY after a talk because the response was so good. Great questions, excited collaboration ideas, I feel hopeful for #KidneyCrew and #TeamPlacenta.
In a week that's been ROUGH for science, this was so needed.
